Has anyone seen the new 5.0 mag with the article on the new Ford Racing Supercharger? What a joke 354hp peak @ 6K and 342 peak torque, you got to be kidding me, I know, warrenty issues and all but do they really expect to sell these?

A boost of 54 HP out of a forced induction system? Wow, I hope they're only charging $100 for them, anything more would be too much.

Was that all? Which issue is that, I thought I had the newest one but maybe I didn't.

Tuner issues maybe?

They have three models listed at Ford Racing and hopefully they are referring to the only one currently available M-6066-M463V (other two coming soon) and maybe one of the other two not yet available will be more aggressive.

http://www.fordracingparts.com/superchargers/superchargers.asp

M-6066-M463V+ 2005-07 Mustang 4.6L Twin Screw / Non Intercooled Black Now Available
M-6066-M463P+ 2005-07 Mustang 4.6L Twin Screw / Non Intercooled Polished Coming Soon
M-6066-M11+ 2005-07 Mustang 4.6L Big Boost Kit Upgrade Kit / Intercooled Black Coming Soon

I am saving for the Saleen, maybe my internals will survive it's more conservative boost.

Oct 06 issue, and it comes with a programmer that they claim is a better tune than the GT 500.

Keep a eye on the Magna Charger comimg out in 2-3 weeks. It's on the Steeda Q and will net over 120 RWHP.

BTW, we have them coming

That pully design gives me pause. It's obviously been tested but just smacks me as a weak point in the design for durability.

Nothing weak at all. This thing is beefy as all heck.
Remember, these guys have been making GM's super fast for years, it's over built for sure.

Is the magna charger a roots type or a twin screw?

It's a hybrid. The Ford Racing (Whipple) 2.8L intercooled blower will be the cats ass!
